I run a charity with my wife (One And All Aid), which funds education for Yezidis, following the 2014 genocide. In my spare time I fish and write. Two fishing books have been published, and my new book is a comedy adventure novel, Criminal Bycatch.

I am delighted to welcome Nadhim Zahawi to Reform UK. He will bring useful experience, such as claiming £6,000 to heat his stables and avoiding £3.7m tax by hiding £27m offshore and threatening to sue anyone who asked about it.

Not often that west Cornwall (my home) makes the national headlines. We were lucky, no major damage, but still having power cuts. It's odd to take a torch into the shower in case the lights go out. Fortunately I grew up in developing countries, so I'm used to it.
